The 695th Wuwei Zero Gun
A troop came to Chaoyang County in the first month.
It was an all-women, 500-strong army.
The leader of the team has been replaced by Xie Simei to a young female soldier - Yu Suzhen.
She is the third female barracks commander after Xie Simei and Sai Chunmei.
Yang Chengying went out of Chaoyang County to greet him.
As soon as she saw Yang Chengying, Yu Suzhen turned over and dismounted, handed over the reins to the female soldiers beside her, and quickly stepped forward: "The last general Yu Suzhen will meet Jingluo." ”
Yang Chengying hugged his fists and replied: "Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally looked forward to you." ”
It's not that they don't listen to the dispatch, but that they have had a good time along the way.
From Golden State, rush here.
"After receiving the order, we packed up and set off."
Yu Suzhen heard it: "And I strictly implemented your orders, and I didn't rush desperately." ”
Yang Chengying nodded: "That's right." If you come too early, I won't have a place to entertain you. ”
"Jinglu, you called us from Jinzhou all the way, is there anything important?"
Yu Suzhen couldn't wait to know what Yang Chengying asked them to do.
Yang Chengying smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry." You've worked hard all the way, rest for a few days, and I'll tell you again. ”
"I'm still resting." Yu Suzhen looked unhappy, "Along the way, we crawled like turtles, and we were uncomfortable. ”
"yes, we want to know what's next!"
The marching young women spoke up.
These female soldiers are all from girls' schools.
For various reasons, the enrollment of girls' schools has not been ideal.
Most of those who are willing to come to study have a miserable background.
After coming out, she passed the assessment of female soldiers and became a female soldier who ate food.
Over time, there was a younger generation of female soldiers.
Yang Chengying smiled: "Okay." I will take you to a place, and when you arrive, you shall not make a loud noise whatever you see. ”
"Understood." Yu Suzhen was in good spirits.
Since the female soldiers are all young girls and have undergone long-term military training, their temperament is very different from that of women generally seen.
This attracted a lot of people to wait and see.
Bachelors, in particular, are almost all in a higher place, stretching their necks and looking at them violently.
The female soldiers have long been accustomed to it, and the queue is not chaotic at all.
Walk past the gaze of the people.
Everyone still wanted to continue watching and followed.
But when they found out that the female soldier had entered the gunsmith's factory, they had to leave in a huff.
There is a fence around the perimeter of the gunsmith's factory, which is 100 meters around and is not allowed to approach.
When you catch one, you pull it to work as a coolie.
So, they had to give up.
When the girls entered the factory, their eyes widened and their eyes were full of curiosity.
It's not at all the same here as the Ordnance Bureau.
Yang Chengying left the female soldiers in place, and only led Yu Suzhen alone to a place called the firearms test site.
In the field, an old man with a white beard was discussing something with another old man.
Seeing Yang Chengying coming in, the younger old man hugged his fists.
The white-haired old man stood still.
On the contrary, it was Yang Chengying who gave him a big salute.
This surprised Yu Suzhen.
After the salute, Yang Chengying turned around and introduced to Yu Suzhen: "This is the scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion in the former Ming Dynasty, Lord Xu. ”
Then, he introduced the younger old man: "This is Lord Lang Bi, the right attendant of the former military department of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Yu Suzhen saluted one by one, and her heart was shocked.
These are all the big officials in the court, why are they all here.
She didn't know that because of the relationship between Yang Chengying and Xu Guangqi, there was a lot of criticism of Xu Guangqi in the court.
With the battle over the new calendar, Xu Guangqi, who was attacked to the point of "incompleteness", had to choose to return to his hometown.
has a similar experience with him, as well as Bi Maokang.
Bi Maokang was promoted from Yingtianfu to Jingshi, and immediately encountered Chen Qiyu's carriage gorge accident, and was forced to return to his hometown.
They heard that Yang Chengying was doing something new in Chaoyang County, so they came together.
And then, they don't go.
Yang Chengying said: "In the future, you will obey orders under his second elder and learn new methods of making firearms." ”
"Yes." Yu Suzhen was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "New gun!" ”
It was only at this time that she noticed that on the wooden shelf behind the second elder, there was a musket that was completely different from the one in front.
Yang Chengying smiled: "There is no mistake. This is a good gun that I have painstakingly researched, and it is the first time that your women's barracks has used it. ”
Why do you say again, because the first flintlock pistols were also used by them.
Girls are naturally more attentive than men.
Coupled with the factors of the times, they are more diligent.
It is only fitting that Yang Cheng should use them to participate in the development and experimentation of new weapons.
Hearing this, Xu Guangqi, who had long been used to it, was nothing.
Bi Maokang was a little embarrassed.
Yang Chengying pretended not to see it, and picked up the gun on the table.
In front of the three people, he put the butt of the gun on the ground, filled the barrel with a charge bag, and then picked up a bullet that Yu Suzhen had never seen before from the box, with the sharp corners pointing up and the fillet pointing down, loaded it into the barrel, and stabbed it with a metal rod.
Then, Yang Chengying held the gun, first broke the strange thing on the butt of the gun back, and then aimed at the iron piece two hundred steps away, and pulled the trigger.
There was a thud.
A faint white smoke came out and quickly blew away.
At the same time, the pieces of iron shook in mid-air with a bang.
Yu Suzhen shook her head and hurriedly asked, "What kind of gun is this?" ”
"Like the Shenwei Cannon, I named this gun the Wuwei Zero Gun."
Yang Chengying said: "In the future, the guns that are improved and produced will be improved and produced, just add a number after Wuwei." ”
"I ...... Can I try it? ”
Yu Suzhen ignored her identity, her eyes were full of longing.
"Absolutely."
Yang Chengying handed her the sample gun and taught her how to use it.
Actually, the root and the flintlock pistol are the same.
Yang Chengying mainly let Yu Suzhen, until the name of the parts of this gun, as well as the basic principle.
Soon, another gunshot rang out at the test site.
It's just off target.
Rao is like this, Yu Suzhen is still very excited.
This gun, both in terms of range and power, is too terrifying.
"This gun is already so good, why should it be improved?" Yu Suzhen was puzzled.
"This gun is a sample carefully made by Yang Chengying, using the best materials. If you want to get a large number of guns, you need to develop them further. ”
The question asked by Yu Suzhen was also something that Xu Guangqi didn't understand at first.
The words he answered were exactly what Yang Cheng told him at the beginning.
"So, I'll give you a good rest for a few days, and there's still a lot more to do." Yang Chengying said.
"Hmm." Yu Suzhen clenched her fists, "Jinglu, I'll go back and take my sisters to the barracks to sleep well for a few days." ”
Yang Chengying smiled and nodded, and he shouted, "Bai Guangen." ”
"The subordinates are here." Bai Guangen rushed in from the outside, and when he saw Yu Suzhen for the first time, his eyes were straight.
Yang Chengying instructed: "You take the female soldiers to the barracks to rest." ”
"Oh, yes."
Bai Guangen was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and responded.
He and Yu Suzhen both stepped back.
Bi Maokang asked puzzledly: "The old man doesn't understand a little, how could he let the girl come to such a dangerous place?" ”
